Hey everyone,
Windward Software long-term review - the good and bad
I'm running a grocery store in San Jose, CA and looking for advice. We currently have been looking at different options. Any recommendations or experiences to share?
Thanks in advance!

We had the same issue. What worked for us was restarting the terminal

The WIC/EBT support is definitely worth the extra cost IMO.

Cost us about $80/month all in. Worth it.
